To all the M1 / M2 / M3 Mac users out there who want to program their hearing aids with Noahlink Wireless, I was able to program my Oticon Intent ’s via my Noahlink Wireless 2 with the Genie 2024.2 software, on UTM9 emulator with Intel chip which is completely free! I hope this helps y’all - this is exactly what I did to get it working on my MacBook M3 Pro (takes a couple hours at least - may vary depending on machine):
- Followed this video to the T - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D00iaBXOeO016 - to setup UTM emulator with Windows 10 64-bit on x86_64 architecture with 8 GB RAM (no need for product key to activate windows license). Set small Mac directory with Genie zip file (don’t unzip from Mac) as the shared directory. This was the biggest thing to get through - took me a little under 2 hours.
- Edited the emulator settings → Input → Made sure the box under “USB Sharing” / before “Share USB devices from host” is checked (because we need the Noahlink Wireless 2 to be recognized by the emulator once we plug it in to the usb port)
- Spun up the emulator again and then extracted Genie 2024.2 zip file in windows. Ran setup.exe to install the Genie application
- Started the Genie application and made sure the software boots up normally.
- Finally plugged in Noahlink Wireless 2 via usb - a UTM popup should appear asking if you want the Noahlink Wireless connected via the USB port to be mirrored on to the emulator.
- Successfully detected Noahlink Wireless for programming device and then paired with my Oticon Intent’s and voila!
